Enter to www.drfostersmith.com and go the live support link. Tell them you bought them that chiller, but you do not understand the manual. They will guide you thru.

Take care, and good luck

Looks like you had the same problem I did no dirextions. I simply called PCI and they sent me a boook on it. You may also wanna check and see about an upgraded board for it. This will take you from the 4 deg variance to the 2 degree varance with no problem. I did it myself its just a matter or unplug and replug in the controller board. You will go from 4 buttoms to 3 and it simplifies things greatly.


BTW Ask for Tim at PCI

Cheep Chiller

Thanks for the post Jeff, I have Called and they sent out a Manual on it. I have had a lot of trouble keeping it running I could not keep it on my 150 Gallon tank. I was able to get a brand new Current Usa chiller in the 1/3 Hp size with the built in uv light Wow what a difference on chillers!
I then tried it on my 75 gallon SPS & Clam tank and it could just barely keep up with it and i only have 2ea. 250 watt HQI halides on it! The cooling fan quit so I have shelved it and I have bought another new Current usa 1/4 hp chiller with the built in UV I hope to get it this week these units are pretty nice and very quiet I hope to get many good years of use from them. Thanks again for the tip with Tim i will probably send mine in for a fan repair...Jeff

Alot of Maintence Roy= No good!

I far I will never buy one of these again and i only live 3 hours away from the main Pacific Coast plant. Spent a lot of money trying to get this unit to work. Since I bought this unit I have bought a 1/4Hp USA Current unit with the built in UV light. Just a way better unit...Jeff
